Home minister Colonel Tin Hlaing and labour minister Tin Win -also a minister at the Office of the Prime Minister -were the latest victims in a power struggle among the top ranks of the military regime.

Labour minister Tin Win was a member of the Myanmar team to attend a summit of European and Asian leaders in Hanoi in October and before that was a senior figure of the regime's delegation to the United Nations general assembly. His departure follows that in September of the former foreign minister Win Aung in the first of a series of shake-ups among the leadership. He was followed a month later by Khin Nyunt.

Four deputy ministers have also been dismissed in the reshuffle, according to state television Friday.
